A Great Gordon Ramsay Interview
I found a great Gordon Ramsay interview on the BBC talk show Parkinson in which he covers a number of topics, including:
- Why it’s difficult to serve his mom at his restaurant
- Is all that screaming really necessary to run a restaurant?
- Why he doesn’t do dinner parties at home
- The “his and hers” kitchens at his house: his is 1,500 square feet and has a code lock on the door
- Working long days in Parisian kitchens and having a French girlfriend (“It’s like going to bed with a Rottweiler strapped to your chest”).
The interview’s a couple of years old, but it’s making the rounds on the internet right now. I figure that if it’s new to me, it’s likely new to at least a few other people, so I thought I’d point you to it. To watch it, click here or click the photo below:

By the bye, the video’s posted on VidKing, a celebrity video site that I’m working on reviving. Give it a look and let me know what you’d like to see on it, in terms of videos or features.
I saw this at Vaughan Mills last weekend. I may have to get one for the next nerd conference I attend…
While biking eastbound on Dundas Street West to work this morning, I spotted a long line that stretched around the the corner of Dundas West and Rusholme. The reason? Free chicken legs!
The Portuguese butcher shop/grocery store O Nosso Talho (which Babelfish clumsily translates as “Ours I Cut”) was offering free chicken legs. I’d say that the line was half Portuguese (probably regulars at the store) and half Chinese (“Free chicken? Deal me in!”).
Update: Jamie McQuay pointed out in the comments that the owner of O Nosso Talho won the lottery, and he decided to share the wealth with his customers. For more details, see this Toronto Star article: Butcher wins $14.5M, will share cash, chicken. He’s giving away chicken legs to his customers and the needy.
Being a fan of the “double leg dinner” myself, I’d have joined the line if I’d had some time to spare.

Here’s the description of Garfield Minus Garfield, a site featuring Garfield comic strips in which Garfield has been removed:
Who would have guessed that when you remove Garfield from the Garfield comic strips, the result is an even better comic about schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and the empty desperation of modern life? Friends, meet Jon Arbuckle. Let’s laugh and learn with him on a journey deep into the tortured mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a losing battle against loneliness in a quiet American suburb.
Here’s today’s Garfield Minus Garfield, which features the accordion:
After posting the previous article, I Googled “Stuff Asian People Like” on a hunch and lo and behold, there it was…the Stuff Asian People Like blog!
In this blog, “Asian” tends to refer to “south-east Asian”; if you’re looking for south Asian, there’s Stuff Indians Like.
At this rate, there should be a Stuff Crystal Meth Addicts Like blog in about a week.
